TRIP THE WIRE-words and music Jon Clark
© Copyright 2014 Row North Music (ASCAP)

Red tide, witches brew, don't come along…for the view
One step, two for two, lost your way…but I think you knew
Big gun, Uncle Sam, guided missile…what's your plan
Run, run, on the lam, one more brother…one more man

Next step may trip the wire
Next step may fall
Don't put me in the fire
Don't put me in…the wall

Who knew what to say, close your eyes…then just lay
Face down, you will pay, live like me…from this day
Last time we all thought, different jungle…then you're caught
Sand man, I just bought, this new problem…you just fought

Next step may trip the wire
Next step may fall
Don't put me in the fire
Don't put me in…the wall

Hum-vee, on the fly, not my road…by and by
Would you ask them why, face to face…eye to eye
Endless way to run, tell me now…are we done?
Look up to the sun, just the same…everyone

Next step may trip the wire
Next step may fall
Don't put me in the fire
Don't put me in…the wall

Red tide, witches brew, don't come along…for the view
One step, two for two, lost your way…but I think you knew
Big gun, Uncle Sam, guided missile…what's your plan
Run, run, on the lam, one more brother…one more man
